It’s all about relationships.

Released at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival, our issue of Indiescreenedition highlights the significant role that partnerships and relationships play, not only in the success of a given project, but also in the success of a production company, and even in the success of our national industry as a whole. Also included is our extensive production list, which identifies more than 250 feature films, spanning all genres, recently produced in Canada.

Did you know that the longest-running film festival in North America is actually based in Canada? It’s true – the Yorkton Film Festival in Yorkton, Saskatchewan was founded in 1947 and continues today exhibiting Canadian and international productions. It stands as a proud example of Canada’s deep film festival history.

This issue of Indiescreen magazine takes an in-depth look at film festivals across the country and underscores the important role that festivals play for filmmakers and audiences alike.

In this special Canada 150 edition of Indiescreen magazine we reflect on what it is that unites 36 million citizens spread across 10 million square kilometers: it’s our stories. Our ability to share stories with one another helps us to define our values and promote ourselves to the world.

We sat down with the Minister of Canadian Heritage Mélanie Joly to learn about her cultural influences and the bright future she envisions for made-in-Canada content. We also chatted with Canada’s preeminent literary icon Margaret Atwoord to discuss the fascinating process of adapting her classic novel Alias Grace for the small screen.

Indiescreen, fall 2016

The inaugural film festival issue of Indiescreen magazine takes a look at the growing diversity in Canada’s media production sector, reflecting the unique and varied individuals who make up our great country.

Although much work remains to be done, with our cover story on the rise of Lyriq Bent and his work with producers Sudz Sutherland and Jennifer Holness; our interviews with influential producers Jillianne Reinseth from eOne and Kim Todd from Original Pictures; and our look at the motivations and challenges behind Taken, a series that boldly aims to tell the hard stories of Canada’s missing and murdered Aboriginal women, we can see indications of an industry headed in the right direction.
